Well, it turns out that it does. No one is criticizing you personally, just
trying to help with your education. 

Correct spelling and grammar are indications that the person does not
tolerate mediocrity. Spelling variations that are "cute" or "modern", are
fine in other contexts but not really in a technical forum where there are
readers from many different cultures and spoken languages. Using the
standard form of English is also a sign of politeness and inclusiveness. In
general, we are attempting to communicate our thoughts here so we need to
do that in a way that makes it easy for all potential readers in the forum.
